The Reborn Noble Daughter

Chapter 311 311. Huge amounts of money

Xiao Muqian nodded, surprised at the speed of the Feng family's work, and couldn't help but admire the person in front of him.

In Dongdu City, he had the opportunity to meet Mr. Feng several times. They were obviously brothers, but they gave people completely different impressions.

Perhaps the eldest brother has lived in the eastern capital for a long time, so he is more like the son of a noble family and a powerful official in the court.

But the younger brother in front of him was neither humble nor arrogant. Even though he was a businessman, he had never looked down upon him. The entire family was not only managed in an orderly manner, but also did many practical things for Liangzhou with great benevolence and righteousness.

Under his leadership, the merchants in Liangzhou have a cleaner style, and their reputation is naturally much better than those outside.

Xiao Muqian smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work, uncle."

"It's getting late today, so just sleep here and get up early to leave tomorrow."

"Let uncle arrange everything!"

The day he stayed in the mine was Xiao Muqian's rare free time.

Looking out the window at the starry sky, he thought of Bai Siruo.

At this time, several months had passed since he left Dongdu City. He had been busy before and had no time to write a letter home. He delayed sending a thick letter until a few days ago.

I don’t know when she will receive it, and I don’t know how she will feel when she receives it.

After the matter in Liangzhou City is settled, it's time for him to go back and get married. As for whether to stay in Dongdu City or return to Liangzhou in the future, he needs to discuss it in detail with her.

From his own perspective, he hopes to return to Liangzhou.

But the Bai family would probably not agree. After all, she is the only child in the family now. If she also leaves, wouldn't the Bai family be empty?

Thinking of this, I feel that I can't be so selfish, I still have to think more about her.

In this tossing and turning situation, I don't know when I fell asleep.

All I know is that when I woke up, it was already broad daylight.

When I walked out of the house, I saw that it was still peaceful outside.

The people he had seen returning to their houses last night were now back in the mines.

Many people here have been passed down from generation to generation. It is not an exaggeration to say that generations have worked hard in the Feng family mine.

But the Feng family never treated them harshly, and supplies were never in short supply. Even the husband invited two teachers to teach the children.

Apart from anything else, this place seems to be a paradise.

Under such circumstances, it is natural that the mole cannot escape.

This is not only the Feng family's imperial ability, but also a headache for outsiders.

For example, Master Du who was following the Ninth Prince had been lurking here for many days.

He deliberately injured a teacher as an excuse to replace him, and he has been teaching children here for almost two months.

Under the cover of the Wei family's power, his background was very clean, and with Feng Jinhao's assistance in this matter, no one noticed him for a while, a master with no ability to restrain a chicken.

Because of this, he paid attention to many secrets here.

But they still know nothing about the Fengjia mine ledger that they most want to get.

Xiao Muqian and others came and left in a hurry, but they did not notice Master Du who was hiding behind and watching them.

What is Fengshan doing in the mine at this time?

And the person next to him is obviously a strange face, but why does he always feel familiar, as if he has seen him somewhere before?

I couldn't remember it for a while.

Horse hooves clattering, they are going as they came.

Three days later, the huge amount of money began to flow into the market gradually, and the Feng family quietly raised some wages. It was not much per person, but it was quite a lot in total.

At the same time, Huatie, Zhumahuo and other companies also began to increase their wages under the leadership of the Feng family.

This wage is much more than before. Once the people have money, it will naturally drive some consumption. As time goes by, this money will quietly become surplus money in the hands of the people.

Foreigners came here to live in peace. After seeing how they could earn a surplus of food by working hard, no one would want to eat and sleep outside. Therefore, Leye's mentality was stimulated and he worked extra hard.

The original people of Liangzhou were not willing to be compared, so they naturally had to work harder, thus forming a virtuous cycle.

The more you work and the better you do, the more money you get.

The Feng family and other merchant families, on the surface, offered more wages, but in fact they made money back. Therefore, when they provided raw materials to Xiao Ji, the quality also increased a lot.

In just half a month, the entire Liangzhou City was in full swing.

By the time the Ninth Prince and his army arrived outside Liangzhou City, the money had long been missing and had become a staple in the homes of thousands of people.

In order for the people of Liangzhou to live a peaceful life, Xiao Ji wanted to give the Ninth Prince face even if he didn't want to.

They arranged for a banquet to be entertained, and then took him to climb the city wall to have a look at the mountains and small mountains and talk about the current situation of Liangzhou City.

The Ninth Prince had little contact with this uncle.

I originally thought that he would be the kind of person who is proud of himself and doesn't know how to adapt, but he turned out to be a discerning person.

So the attitude towards him became more kind.

"General Xiao has made great achievements this time. After the master returns to the court, this prince will definitely ask for your merits in front of my father!"

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness. Everything is your fault. If you hadn't been in Ganzhou, the Beidi people wouldn't have been so afraid, so Liangzhou could survive. Now everyone is working together to restore Liangzhou to its former glory. And my efforts are all based on His Highness’s orders.”

Although the compliments were said in a sincere way, the Ninth Prince sounded extremely comfortable.

In his eyes, the common people's city is not as important as military achievements.

Seeing Xiao Ji building momentum for him, the suspicion in his heart became less.

This kind of person who endures hardship without worrying about reputation is rare, but that's fine, this way, he feels much more relaxed.

So, after "pretending to give instructions" to Xiao Ji, he rested in the general's mansion.

The environment here is very different from the Governor's Mansion in Ganzhou. Not to mention, even the beds are extra hard.

Xiao Ji deliberately exposed a lot of tatters that still needed to be rebuilt wherever he went, so that even if the Ninth Prince wanted to be extravagant, he would not be able to satisfy it.

So after sleeping here for a night, the Ninth Prince's arrogant and extravagant energy came back.

"How can the dignified general's residence be so shabby! Don't be the one belonging to His Highness Yu Ben."

There were several people standing below, all of whom were his confidants. They had nothing to do with Xiao Ji, and they could get some credit for nothing without fighting, so they did not add insult to injury, but explained "kindly".

"I heard that General Xiao has always lived in the military camp. He has neither married, had children, nor taken care of his family business. Therefore, the general's mansion has always been deserted. Judging from his military salary, without other subsidies, I’m afraid I won’t be able to come up with anything good.”
